URL monitoring
-
Hello! I was wondering if it is possible to monitor all the URLs visited from a Internet Explorer. Searched little bit, but wasn't able to find anything useful. For further clarification, I want to keep the log of each and every URL visited/browsed/accessed from Internet Explorer, including all the links of files downloaded (even from save as dialog box). Anyone have any idea where to start? Regards, Adeel
Do rate the reply, if it helps or even if it doesnot, because it helps the members to know, what solved the issue. Thanks.

Not sure. You might have to tap into the object instance of the url textbox. I've seen it done for other apps, but don't recall the exact approach.

Do you mean instance of Internet Explorer's URL textbox?!

Yes.

I know QA Wizard does. It is commercial, and you won't find the code. A google search can probably bring something up as far as sample code goes.

I think you need to get the handle to the window, then find the handle for the textbox from there. There should be articles on that sort of thing here on CP, though no doubt in c++.
